Abstract

Based on parents' ratings, 53 male delinquents were classified as either psychopathic, neurotic, immature, or socialized-aggressive. The relationships of several cognitive characteristics derived from the Role Construct Repertory Test to membership in the above groups were investigated. Few differences between groups emerged on the variables measured. However, an analysis of group differences in perceived similarities among other people was fruitful. Implications for differential treatment were derived.
